There are a number of treatments for gum recession and the one recommended will depend on the aims of the treatment. This patient had very thin gum around her lower front tooth that was difficult to clean comfortably, which meant the recession was progressing rapidly. We did a free gingival graft here, which helps thicken the gums and ensures the recession doesn’t progress. It’s also a lot more comfortable to now clean around the lower front teeth.
